Nurse Ambassadors

Connecting Nurses

As a registered nurse, you are a vital piece of the health-care puzzle, a frontline worker that your community can depend on. Every day, you connect with your patients and clients; it's what makes nursing special, rewarding.

Now, give something back to yourself and to your profession: connect with your colleagues and future nurses.
RNAO's Liaison Programs and Nurse Ambassador Program are all about connections - strengthening connections with your nursing colleagues in your workplace.

RNAO Needs Nurse Ambassadors

What is the Nurse Ambassador (NA) program?

The NA Program is a volunteer program consisting of nurses across Ontario who donate their time, knowledge and experience by talking about the nursing profession at various community events and speaking engagements in schools – with audiences ranging in education from grade 7 and high school students to mature students. NA’s assist and prepare those who are considering nursing as a career while spreading information about the nursing profession.
